Closing web browser

Anyone have an idea as to how to close an open page in safari? User's manual on page 55 says you can't close it, without explaining it why. You can close any additional open pages by touching the red x, but a red x doesn't appear on the first web page. Makes no sense to me -- if I can close a web browser on mac or pc, why not on iphone? If the web page is one that could be embarrassing for others to see, make sure you open it second.
Also, i learned after a lot of screwing around that the "favorites" list in the phone menu has a limit of 20 entries -- once you hit 20, you will no longer see the "add to favorites" button when you open a contact. They should have told you in the user's manual.

that doesn't work for me. I thought my iphone has froze up and did a force quit by holding home button down, which killed the web page. But if I simply hit home and then go back to safari, my open web page is still there. Plus, the owner's manual says (page 55) you can't close the first open page.
If I do a shut down, and power back up, then go to safari, the web page is gone but will immediately reload.

Self closing web browser when we reload a java3D applet!

Hi,
Recently, I opened a web site based on a new concept of sport gaming and I chose java3D for the portability and the capability to run as an applet in a web browser.
But until now I don't know why the browser exit when we try to change the game, for example from football to basket-ball.
After all we can always restart the browser but I don't know if it is a garbage collector problem or a browser problem, I try it with Mozilla-Firefox (Redhat and Suse) and Internet Explorer (Windows Me and 2000).
the example code in the principal applet class is:
public void destroy() {
espaceBasket.destroy();
System.gc();
and in espaceBasket where is the universe etc. :
public void destroy() {
u.cleanup();
If you want to execute the applets go to :
www.mysportbridge.com
Any comment...
Thank you

Thanks for the speedy reply.
I understand that JCO connections should be closed properly, and I've read the attached note previously.
What I'm actually looking for is a timeout connection for the Http/s session that can be seen in the Visual Administrator under:
Monitoring > Services > Security > Agrregated Data > ActiveSessionsCount.
The number of active session remains very high although there are no users logged onto the system.

Closing Web Browser from an Applet

Does anyone knows how to close the Web Browser from an Applet ?
Also Is there a way to close a browser which is intantiated from using ApplteContext ().showDocument ("....","_Blank").
Thanks
Sohan

Hi kavinjir!
Using class netscape.javascript.JSObject is possible to interact with javascript which can easily close the window browser but I'm afraid about the newest one because it isn't a child window. If this newest window contains an applet both (applets) can interact and send/receive "messages" to trigger an event (e.g; close via javascript again).
Best Regards.

Closing web browser from a Web Dynpro (ABAP) component in it

Hi,
I am opening a Web Dynpro component in IE.
I have a requirement to close the Internet Explorer window on click of a "Close" Button in Web Dynpro (ABAP) component. I am using EXIT Outbound plug of the Main Window to perform the same.
In the EXIT plug I am setting "CLOSE_WINDOW" parameter to ABAP_TRUE.
On click of the "Close" button a pop-up dialog box (with "Yes" and "No" buttons) appears asking me whether I really want to close the IE window.
If I click on "Yes" button of the dialog box, the IE window gets closed without any issues.
But when I click on "No" button, the IE window shows up a blank screen. I want the control to come back to the calling Web Dynpro component's screen.
Appreciate any help/guidance in the above issue.
Thanks,
Prasanna

Event handling for closing a browser window on portal in web dynpro abap

Hi,
I am new to portal as well as web dynpro. Is it possible to handle portal events in web dynpro abap? My requirement is whenever a browser window is closed on portal, if any new system messge has been added I want to display them in a pop-up. I checked examples from the package 'SWDP_TEST' but they trigger events in web dynpro and pass them to portal. I want to subscribe to the close event of portal and handle it in my web dynpro abap application. How can I achieve this? Please suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Amrutha

Hi,
I dont think that you can code to close IE browser window as you cannot access MS IE APIs in WD ABAP. I looked into closing IE browser and got http://p2p.wrox.com/general-net/16588-handling-ie-close-event.html . reading this, it seems the coding can be done in C#(asp) etc.
also refer Closing of IE window
I hope this is useful for you.

Prompting SaveAs when Form in Web Browser is closed.

Hi All,
I'm configuring with LiveCycle Designer 7.1 on LiveCycle Forms 7.1 server.
If a saved form is opened and changed in Adobe Reader 7 with Reader Extensions enabled, Reader prompts users to save their PDF form when they close their form (i.e. with the standard x on the top right hand corner of a window).
We would like the same prompt to appear for a freshly-rendered form the user sees within a web browser session when the form is about to close. It would be good if we can avoid two Save prompts from appearing in a saved PDF, as Adobe Reader has its own in-built save alert.
To firstly trigger the prompt, I have tried using the following in the docClose event at the xfa.form.MyForm level:
var saveResponse = xfa.host.messageBox(Save form?, windowname, 2, 2);
If (saveResponse == 4)
app.execMenuItem(SaveAs);
But I observed that the message box appears only after the form disappears. When the Yes button is selected, no SaveAs window comes up. It seems as if the script executes only after the document is closed.
Has success with implementing something like this?
Thanks,
Xiao

Hi there
Assuming you were Publishing in version 3 and choosing the HTML option, the standard.js file was likely there. I'd be totally shocked to find it wasn't part of the equation. This calls into question what your perception of Publishing is.
I ask, because if you are coming at this from a Web Developer perspective, Publishing likely means something totally different to you than it does in the Captivate realm. In Captivate, you Publish to take the source .CP file and create output files from that source.
In the Web Development realm, the act of Publishing is performing a process that transfers copies of the content on your hard drive to the Web Server.
I'm wondering if somehow you have your Windows setup configured such that it doesn't show you files with a .JS file extension. That's the only other possibility I can fathom as to why you wouldn't be seeing it.
Cheers... Rick

Display popup window when closing "X" web browser

Hi All - how I can display a popup window when user press "X" from web browser.
I know how to create popups windows but where I can code the popup window when the user close the browser?
e.g. I press at the top right the web browser "X" to close the browser, how I can display a popup asking if they want to SAVE the data before closing the browser.
thanks!

Hi Manas,
are you sure?
If you close the browser window - even if you have set the portal work protect mode, set the app as dirty and running the app in the portal - the windows closes without any complaint.
If you were in the portal and tried to navigate away from the page, that would be a different thing - but a browser close is just that. You can capture the onUnload event of the browser window (not in WD - but JS) but you have no way of detecting that it is not just a page refresh.
Do a search for "intercepting browser close events" via google etc, to see just how tricky to build a solution would be.
So I'd say - no ability to stop browser close events - or to react to them - but yes to portal navigation type event within the portal. And further to that - I'd suggest using the FPM work protect mode interface to help you take advantage of the Portal work protection.
Cheers,

Closing an application and web browser at same time at runtime

Does anyone have any ideas of code that addresses that problem of closes the web browser at runtime when the application closes?
I've been converted about 140+ forms and 300+ reports to 10g from 6i client/server and I've got all the forms converted but now that I've got it up on a website at runtime, I'm documenting all these application issues that I just haven't had time to research.
It sounded like I do write some Java Beans, based on some threads I've read. But I didn't fully understand.
Any help is appreciated.

Ok, I was able to do it when I hard-coded to the http://servername:port in the web.show_document. My question is: I have a windows and Linux (Development and Test server). All 3 are different servers. How can I make it to where I don't have to hard-code the server name. I've put the html page in the ORACLE_HOME/forms/java folder. The application and web browser closes just fine when I hard-code the server name in the web.show_document command. Is there a way I can get around this where I don't have to hard-code the name, but still access it from the same path on all 3 servers?

Problem in Calling Sub VI remotely from a main VI in a Web Browser.

Hi i am Calling Sub VI remotely from a main VI in a Web Browser.
My task details:
I my project i am fechting data from a MySQL data base and storing in a table on the main VI front panel.For User help i am calling a sub VI front panel which is consisting of a progress bar and percentage indicator.It indicates the user that the data is loading from the DB.The main purpus of a subVI is to make the GUI more user friendly..by displaying the SubVI front panel until whole data is loaded into the table and closing Immediately after load complete.
What i did?
To call a SUB VI i just right clicked on the subVI icon on the main VI >> SubVI node setup>> Show front panel when called.
In main VI Execution property i have seected Preallocated clone reentrant execution
In Sub VI Execution property i have seected Non- reentrant execution.
If i select Preallocated clone reentrant execution in Sub VI while calling sub VI i am getting warning message saying subVI front panel cannot be controlled remotely.
Promblem I am facing:
It is working perfect in a server machine(as a stand alone) but when i call the same VI or application in remote system i abserved two issues
1. When i call a sub VI every time the front panel is coming in both server and client machine.I want the subVI panel to display only in the client machine, other wise the user sitting in front of the server will be confused by seeing many popups(SubVIs) in his system.
2. When one client is calling a SubVI, the other user should wait until the the sub vi displayed and closed in the 1st client.Means the simultaniously more than one client cant access the SubVI.In this case i can access the main VI simultaniously but not the SubVI.
Please give me the solution.It wil be very helpful for me.Thank You in advance.
Thanks & Regards

I did some prijects with Siebel, but we used JMS for sending and retrieving message between Siebel and BPEL. Can you use this solution? This also gives you the advantage that you can guarantee that the transactionis committed and placed in a queue. You can also bring down the BPEL environment without interfering the Siebel environment, because the communication is done via JMS (queueus)

Closing the browser with a single click from form

Hi All,
Will u please help me anyone how to close the browser with a single click pressing exit button or closing the cross buton.
Arif

Always start with a search on this forum
Solution
Instructions:
1. Using an html or text editor, create an html file with the following code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Create a ref to the original method
var windowClose = window.close;
// Re-implement window.open
window.close = function ()
window.open("","_self");
windowClose();
</script>
</head>
<body onload="window.close()">


Your browser or system settings have prevented this window from closing.
In order to ensure the highest level of security,
please close/exit this browser session immediately.
</body>
</html> 2. Save the html file with the following name: close.htm
3. Store this file on the middle tier, in a directory which has an associated virtual path configured in the HTTP Server. You can use a pre-existing path or create a new one. For example, in version 10.1.2 you could copy the html file to this directory:
ORACLE_HOME\tools\web\html
The above virtually maps to the following by default:
/forms/html/
For information on creating a virtual path for the HTTP Server, please refer to the HTTP Server Administrator's Guide.
4. In the Forms application, choose the desired trigger where you would like to execute the closing of the browser. Remember that by executing this code, the application will be ungracefully terminated, therefore it is recommended that the following code only be entered in the Forms POST-FORM trigger.
web.show_document ('/forms/html/close.htm','_self');
5. Compile and run the form.
Upon exiting the form, the web browser will call close.htm resulting in the browser closing.
This has been successfully tested using IE7 on XP-SP3. Although this code will work with other browsers, for example FireFox 3, a configuration change in FF must be made in order for it to work correctly.
Manual Steps Required for FireFox:
1. Open one instance of the FireFox browser.
2. In the address bar, enter the following and press Enter on the keyboard:
about:config
3. In the list presented, locate the following parameter:
dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows
4. Double-click on this parameter to set its value to TRUE
5. Exit the browser

Closing the browser - new problem

Hi Experts,
I had this issue of closing the browser in web Dynpro Java. i did it with the help of the experts views posted in SDN(passing the URL of the java file containing the javascript to close the browser to the exit plug). When i created an iView for the application and try to preview it, throws an error reading - com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.exceptions.WDRuntimeException: Exit-Plug must no be triggered with an URL when running in portal. Use portal navigation instead to navigate to another application!. Please help.
Thank You.
Kind Regards,
Manoj Durairaj

Well, with more testing and my buddy's help, what I've learned is that the "Save and Quit" tabs dialogue takes precedence over the warning for closing multiple tabs.
By having browser.showQuitWarning set to true, it will ask me to save and quit - but not if "Show my windows and tabs from last time" is selected for Firefox startup, which makes the prompt for save and quit (and close multiple tabs warning) redundant. It will just save for you upon quitting.
And had I turned off that browser.showQuitWarning manually or by checking "Do not ask next time" on the save and quit dialogue, then the warning for closing multiple tabs would appear upon attempting to close multiple tabs, since I have that warn option set in my tabs settings.
It's one or the other, save and quit OR warning for closing multiple tabs.
It would be nice though if there weren't a conflict between the close multiple tabs warning and the quit Firefox dialogue.
So, I hope this can help anyone else who may be confused or accidentally change options and potentially screw themselves over. After all, I may have sustained a self-inflicted wound in the settings.

RegisterHotKey(....) to disable hotkeys such as ALT+F4 is not working in C# Web Browser control

Disabling hot keys like "ALT+F4" using register RegisterHotKey(..) function and wndproc(..) function in c# windows application is not working as expected in few cases. Below is the description.
I am using C# Web Browser control in windows application to display Web Pages. We are disabling hot keys like ALT+F4 by calling the method RegisterHotKey(..) and capture the hot key message in Wndproc(..) function. Initially This is working as expected
normally.
But as part of new requirement, we need to set the "title of Web browser page" to its parent class(Win form) text property. when we are assigning text property of winform using below code, the hot keys could not be disabled.
this.Text = webBrowserCustom.DocumentTitle; //this keyword refers to WinForm which loads web browser control
If webBrowserCustom.DocumentTitle is empty then this.text is set to Empty string. In such case the hot keys are not getting disabled.
I am not sure what is the relation between text property of winform and hot keys disabling.
Could you please let us know why hot keys are not getting disabled when we setting empty string to Winform(which is loading Web Browser control) text property.?

Hi,
How did you use RegisterHotKey and winproc function in your project, could you please post the code here so that we can reproduce the problem firstly?
If you just want to prevent the user from closing the form, you could register Form_Closing event handler, and cancel the closing behavior by the user.
private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
e.Cancel = (e.CloseReason == CloseReason.UserClosing);
private void btnCloseForm_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.FormClosing -= new System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventHandler(this.Form1_FormClosing);
this.Close();

Preview in Web Browser stopped working

Hello -
I used to be able to preview my project in Web Browser but today for some reason after I click it, the window opens and it looks like it is generating but when it finishes the browser window does not open. I can preview Project, Preview from this Slide and Preview next 5 slides but not from Web Browser anymore. I am using CP 4 and I recently updated with the new patch.
I have completely closed CP and rebooted but still not able to Preview in Web Browser. Is there something I can do to get this to work again?

Hi there
You might want to try clobbering the Captivate settings file. For Captivate 3 on a Windows XP PC you would look in the following location:
X:\Documents and Settings\XX\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
X = Drive letter
XX = Logged in user name
In this location (Which you may need to coax Windows into allowing you to see) you should find a file named captivate_v30.dat. Just Close Captivate and delete this file. Then restart Captivate. Captivate should bake you up a fresh one on the spot. And it may correct the issue.
To my knowledge this is the closest you can get to a fresh install without actually reinstalling.
It would really be way cool if we had a secret key combination that could be issued while Captivate was in the process of starting up that would accomplish this. Either that, or an option we could choose in the application itself. If you feel as I do, please consider requesting it via the Wish Form!

When I start mozilla firefox web browser, sometimes I see a message saying that "a Mozilla Firefox is already running, please close it or restart your program", while I don't have one running at that time. What is the problem?

When I start mozilla firefox web browser, sometimes I see a message saying that "a Mozilla Firefox is already running, please close it or restart your system". As a matter of fact, there is no firefox browser running at that time. Since I cannot do anything about it, I have to restart my computer before I can use the web browser, which bothers me dearly. What is the problem?
